Diseases are most easily prevented, or treated effectively, if they are detected early. TGen’s Early Detection and Prevention Division is dedicated to identifying diseases at their earliest stages by leveraging advanced -omic technologies, surpassing the capabilities of traditional methods. By transforming these discoveries into innovative diagnostic and therapeutic solutions, we strive to stop diseases before they start, enhance patient outcomes, and save lives.
A team of researchers from Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), part of City of Hope, Ethos Discovery and Tufts University, has launched an extensive genomics and proteomics profiling study on Canine Osteosarcoma, B-cell Lymphoma, and Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS). This initiative is part of the Canine Cancer Genome Project (CCGP), originally funded by the Blue Buffalo Foundation and Animal Cancer Foundation (ACF).
